This is a drawing of a scene on a boat. The drawing depicts a small boat named "Le Barbillon" on a body of water. Three individuals are in the boat, with two seemingly engaged in a struggle or altercation, as one figure appears to be holding another by the shirt collar. In the background, another figure casually strolls along the shoreline, carrying something in its hand. The composition features various elements such as the gentle ripples of the water and an overcast sky, with a flock of birds visible in the distance. The artwork uses shading and line work to create texture and depth, conveying movement and emotion within the scene.
